What were the results of the 2 programs in the Israeli league?

If I'm wrong, I'll admit it.

My feeling about Junior being poor against humans was based on its results in
Dortmund. Make no mistake - they were the best results a program had ever
achieved on a commercially available platform, so my viewpoint must seem
churlish. None the less, I was truly disappointed that Junior didn't come out
ahead of the GMs at this event.
